"These are positions we need to add in order to fill out our staff and be compliant with NCAA regulations," said Jacobsen. "Jeff Reinert is an excellent choice for us to work with external affairs. Our chances for immediate success in this NCAA move will be largely dependent on our ability to raise the funds that will be required for the change. "Jeff has great people skills and tremendous potential to help us meet our financial goals. We are excited to have him as someone who wants to be a major administrative player in these efforts." Reinert will leave his coaching post as the winningest men's bas ketball coach in UVSC history, with a record of 179 wins and 77 losses.

I am committed to UVSC and to the NCAA move." Reinert's new responsibilities will include athletic development, major gifts, athletic alumni, ticketing operations, marketing, and promotions.

Huition increase approved By Steve Schaack OF THE NETXNEWS STAFF It has been well documented and known that tuition is going to continue to rise here at Utah Valley State College while the school continues to grow and seek university status. Tuition has been and "-.-'.-; will be an ongoing hot topic for students at the college as long as the hike happens. Monday morning UVSC president, Kerry Romesburg, instructed and answered students' concerns on the upcoming tuition increase. The core problem of the increase in tuition starts in the state legislature. "We were not funded in the legislature," said Romesburg to the handful of students and faculty in attendance. "The core problem is higher education is not supported. It was a very bad year, budget-wise, for higher education." Tuition increases are not just affecting UVSC; they are hitting every school. UVSC currently is on a three-year plan to be at the same tuition level as Weber State. The problem that President Romesburg is now seeing is that with Weber State also raising tuition, " meeting the J y three-year ". v , plan ' 'it i . will tie difficult. ' ' "I am V beginning to think that is not going to happen," said Romesburg at Monday's tuition hearing. "When we said three years we did not anticipate that Weber would go up as high as they have or not getting funded like we did." This year, not including student fees, tuition for in-state students here at Utah Valley was $771, while Weber State's tuition was S893. Next year the UVSC administration has recommended a 16-percent or $123 per semester increase in tuition forlower-division classes and a 5.5-percent increase for upper-division classes.The Board of Regents Continued on page 4 "increase" Net Spot NewsPolitics: www.drudereport.c om A young man was caught trying to sneak explosives onto a domestic flight in Finland in the first such incident recorded in the Nordic country, police said on Friday.

Aviation Program: "The best of the best" By Jllleen Moore OF THE NETXNEWS STAFF Outside the airplane hangar the diamond katana (small two passenger plane) takes off the runway with a student in the left front seat and the instructor to his right, as the sky awaits their entry. Here at the UVSC Aviation Center, only the best of the best will make it through this challenging aviation program. Matt Cope, a dispatcher for the aviation center, said that some people go into the aviation program with ideas of fame and grandeur and think it will be easy. But once in the program they find that it is actually difficult and requires hard work. The intensity of the aviation program requires future pilots to know not only about the plane, but also about meteorology, physics, mechanics, and national flight regulations from a monstrous-sized manual that entails the Federal Aviation Regula-tions (FAR). A pilot is responsible for knowing all aspects of an aircraft. Matt Cope said that when some students realize that it actually requires hard work instead of just easy money, some decide to drop out of the program. Other students "Aviation" continued on page 3
